Benjamin L. Cardin: “How would you make sure Maryland's input is heard?”

I thank Senator Cardin for his leadership in championing the Global Magnitsky Act.

Nowhere has this been more on display than what has occurred in Hong Kong in recent years as the passage of the National Security Law and entry into force of Article 23 destroyed what remains of Hong Kong's democracy.

I introduced the Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act as a way of saying that we will hold abusers accountable even if their own country does not.

If Putin is so mad about this, probably there will be some other dictators that would not like it as well
